It’s a Celebration!, The end of The Parking Meters, Hello Second Season, Delaware Beaches
We do celebrate the end of the parking meters in our Delaware Beaches. Well, 10 minutes for a quarter is a bit much. I think our residents and visitors did enjoy using the new Parking App. No need to carry all those quarters. It was very convenient for those with a smart phone.
But what am I complaining about? I was in Baltimore, Maryland a couple of weeks ago. I parked in a garage right downtown. I only used it for 38 minutes. As I handed out my ticket to the parking cashier, he said “none”. I said; wow thanks!! He kept saying “none”. In reality he was saying “nine”. I just could not understand him. I laughed sooo hard. Can you believe it? $9 for 38 minutes. Now I don’t feel so bad about our beaches charging a quarter for 10 minutes.
Pretty soon you will be able to park with no worries. Stay as long as you want in most places. The schedule is as follows:
Bethany Beach – Parking meters are in effect through Saturday, 9/15.
Rehoboth Beach – Parking meters are in effect through Sunday, 9/16.
Dewey Beach – Parking meters are in effect through Sunday, 9/15.
Fenwick Island – Parking meters are in effect through Sunday, 9/15.
Lewes – Parking meters are in effect through Sunday, 10/14 in the Historic District. This includes the 1812 Lot.
Lewes Beach – Parking meters are in effect through Sunday, 9/30.
Please note that the Delaware State Parks entry fees are in effect until Friday, 11/30. Fees are as follows:
Ocean Parks:
$4 for in-state registered vehicles or $8 for out of state registered vehicles.

The Second Season at the Delaware Beaches is the best!!
